Oklahoma Dirt Trail Series - Thursday, March 1, 2018-

Welcome to the fourth edition of the Oklahoma Dirt Trail Series. We are promoting trail running, non-pavement runs, trailz that get your shoes dirty. TZ Trail Runs, with contributions from RunnersWorld-Tulsa and TATUR, have created a series of several trail races mostly in NE Oklahoma. Someone may very well jump on board and run each and every one--and there will be awards for such foolishness. A point system (described below) will be used to form a fierce competition between trail friends and like-minded contestants.

A-OK Trail Run - Sunday, March 4, 2018- Atoka, Oklahoma

Scenic out-and- back course on well-defined private roads and trails through pine and hardwood forest. Enough hills and rocks to prevent boredom.

One loop for 25K; two loops for 50K. Eight hour time limit. 50K entrants must finish first loop by 12:00 noon or get credit for 25K. Three aid stations to which you will return several times.

Land Run 50K - Saturday, March 17, 2018- District Bicycles, Stillwater, Oklahoma

These roads have a depth of history, and a soul. They are unique, unforgiving, ever-changing, but always red. On April 22, 1889, cannon-fire signaled the beginning of the first Land Run in Stillwater, OK, the home and start/finish line of the Land Run 100. At the heart of this event are some of the most rugged and daunting, beautiful and memorable roads in the Oklahoma country. They take on a personality of their own. But they are also marked by the people who travel far and work hard to ride them. Making yourself a part of these roads makes them a part of you.

Join us for the 2018 Snake Run where everyone has the same finishing time. You run as many loops as you can in 3 or 6 hours. The course is a flat and sandy trail called the Snake Trail and located on the upper section of Turkey Mountain.

We have fabulous awards for the top three male and female finishers for each race. Every participant receives a custom technical t-shirt and custom finishers’ medal.

$150 prize if you beat the course record - see website for the record.

50K, 25K, 12K on single track winding through the pines and along the shores of Lake McMurtry. This is a moderately difficult course--much easier than Turkey Mountain, more difficult that those boring paved bike paths. Plus--and this is huge--the 50K and 25K get to cross the LEAP O DOOM!!!

Help save a great American icon, the wild horses of America, the American Mustang.

Join us at the Armadillo Ultra in the scenic Osage Hills State Park. We will be offering a 50k, 25k and a 10k routes.

This race was formerly known as Osage Hills State Park relatively flat 26.2, 13.1, 10k and 5k. The expanded course makes a 25k loop. The 50k course will run this loop twice. The course has a bit of everything from nice smooth and fast trails, to gently rolling double tracks, to technical rocky single track. Some of the trails run next to bluffs...so watch your step closely as you peer over the edge!

PORT TO FORT is a 3 person team or solo sprint adventure race that starts and ends at Three Forks Harbor on the Arkansas River between Muskogee and Fort Gibson, Oklahoma. The event date is July 8, 2017. Expect warm to hot Oklahoma weather but the adventure races start at 7 and 7:30 am and there is always a cooling river on your left or off your bow and racers can dunk themselves at any time to cool off. There are two distances: The long course is 20 miles and the regular course is 10 miles. There is also a 5k Trail Run for those who want to run only!
The adventure race will test your swimming, trail running, and paddling skills (and off-road cycling as well on the Long Course) as well as some skills that won't be called upon til race day and will remain a secret until then!

Three mile loop course on pasture land. 50K course is nine times, marathon is eight times, half marathon is four times, 10K is two times and the 5K is one time around. Please be courteous to the animals on the course and tell them "Good morning".

All four runs are loops within the 30,000 acre Oklahoma owned and managed Sandy Sanders Wildlife Management Area. The Trails are mostly graded ranch roads through canyonlands of a maximum of about 220 feet from creek to mesa tops. The 25k is one loop from the headquarters south and back, and the 50k is two loops, and the 50 mile is three loops.

It's a race that you run with your feet... Shoes and socks are optional, but recommend. You can even shuffle as well! Skip even if you like. In the red dirt... For a quarter marathon or a half, or more depending on your ability for follow directions.... ability or desire that is. This will be at the beautiful trails of Lake McMurtry.

The Pumpkin Holler 100 Mile, 100K, 50K, 25K, and 10 Mile races will take part in the beautiful J.T. Nickel Preserve. The largest privately protected conservation area in the Ozark, the Nickel Preserve is a 17,000-acre remote area northeast of Tahlequah, Ok, and runs alongside the scenic Illinois River. The preserve was formed in 2000 as the result of a land gift from the John Nickel Family.
The course consists of gravel country roads with a few nice climbs. It is home to grassy prairies, oaks and pines, and an extensive system of tributaries feeding the Illinois River to the south. The tree covered trail will be bursting with yellows, and reds and browns as the trees are just beginning to turn colors and show off their magnificent fall foliage.
